FIELD

The present disclosure relates to engineered Cas9 systems, nucleic acids encoding said systems, and methods of using said systems for genome modification.

BACKGROUND

The recent development of the bacterial class 2 Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) CRISPR/Cas systems as genome editing tools has provided unprecedented ease and simplicity to engineer site-specific endonucleases for eukaryotic genome modification. However, because each CRISPR/Cas system requires a specific protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) for target DNA binding, each system is limited to certain genomic sites. Although the currently most widespread adopted Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpyCas9) uses a frequently occurring PAM (5′-NGG-3′) for targeting, it is still excluded from many genomic sites lacking such a motif, since eukaryotic genomes, especially those of mammals and plants, are highly complex and heterogeneous in DNA sequence. Moreover, precision gene editing using homology-directed repair (HDR) or base editors such as dCas9/cytidine deaminase and dCas9/adenosine deaminase often requires a precise DNA binding position, even at the single base pair resolution, to achieve an optimal editing outcome. Therefore, there is a need to develop new CRISPR/Cas systems that use novel PAMs for targeting to increase genome coverage density.

SUMMARY

Among the various aspects of the present disclosure include engineered Cas9 systems comprising engineered Cas9 proteins and engineered guide RNAs, wherein each engineered guide RNA is designed to complex with an engineered Cas9 protein and the engineered guide RNA comprises a 5′ guide sequence designed to hybridize with a target sequence in a double-stranded sequence, wherein the target sequence is 5′ to a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) and the PAM has a sequence as listed in Table A.

Another aspect of the present disclosure encompasses a plurality of nucleic acids encoding said engineered Cas9 systems and at least one vector comprising the plurality of said nucleic acids.

A further aspect includes eukaryotic cells comprising at least one engineered Cas9 system and/or at least one nucleic acid encoding said engineered Cas9 system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure provides orthologous Cas9 systems that use alternate PAMs for target DNA binding, thereby increasing genome coverage density. For example, some of these alternate PAMs comprise A and/or T residues, and other alternate PAMS are GC-rich. As such, the engineered Cas9 systems that utilize these alternate PAMs enable targeted genome editing or genome modification of previously inaccessible genomic loci.

One aspect of the present disclosure provides engineered Cas9 systems comprising engineered Cas9 proteins and engineered guide RNAs, wherein each engineered guide RNA is designed to complex with a specific engineered Cas9 protein. Each engineered guide RNA comprises a 5′ guide sequence designed to hybridize with a target sequence in a double-stranded sequence, wherein the target sequence is 5′ to a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) and the PAM has a sequence as listed in Table A. These engineered Cas9 systems do not occur naturally.

(a) Engineered Cas9 Proteins

The engineered Cas9 protein comprises at least one amino acid substitution, insertion, or deletion relative to its wild-type counterpart. Cas9 protein is the single effector protein in type II CRISPR systems, which are present in various bacteria. The engineered Cas9 protein disclosed herein can be from Acaryochloris sp., Acetohalobium sp., Acidaminococcus sp., Acidithiobacillus sp., Acidothermus sp., Akkermansia sp., Alicyclobacillus sp., Allochromatium sp., Ammonifex sp., Anabaena sp., Arthrospira sp., Bacillus sp., Bifidobacterium sp., Burkholderiales sp., Caldicelulosiruptor sp., Campylobacter sp., Candidatus sp., Clostridium sp., Corynebacterium sp., Crocosphaera sp., Cyanothece sp., Exiguobacterium sp., Finegoldia sp., Francisella sp., Ktedonobacter sp., Lachnospiraceae sp., Lactobacillus sp., Lyngbya sp., Marinobacter sp., Methanohalobium sp., Microscilla sp., Microcoleus sp., Microcystis sp., Mycoplasma sp., Natranaerobius sp., Neisseria sp., Nitratifractor sp., Nitrosococcus sp., Nocardiopsis sp., Nodularia sp., Nostoc sp., Oenococcus sp., Oscillatoria sp., Parasutterella sp., Pelotomaculum sp., Petrotoga sp., Polaromonas sp., Prevotella sp., Pseudoalteromonas sp., Ralstonia sp., Staphylococcus sp., Streptococcus sp., Streptomyces sp., Streptosporangium sp., Synechococcus sp., Thermosipho sp., Verrucomicrobia sp., and Wolinella sp.

In certain embodiments, the engineered Cas9 protein disclosed herein is from Acidothermus sp., Akkermansia sp., Alicyclobacillus sp., Bacillus sp., Bifidobacterium sp., Burkholderiales sp., Corynebacterium sp., Lactobacillus sp., Mycoplasma sp., Nitratifractor sp., Oenococcus sp., Parasutterella sp., Ralstonia sp., or Wolinella sp.

Wild-type Cas9 proteins comprise two nuclease domains, i.e., RuvC and HNH domains, each of which cleaves one strand of a double-stranded sequence. Cas9 proteins also comprise REC domains that interact with the guide RNA (e.g., REC1, REC2) or the RNA/DNA heteroduplex (e.g., REC3), and a domain that interacts with the protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) (i.e., PAM-interacting domain).

The Cas9 protein can be engineered to comprise one or more modifications (i.e., a substitution of at least one amino acid, a deletion of at least one amino acid, an insertion of at least one amino acid) such that the Cas9 protein has altered activity, specificity, and/or stability.

For example, Cas9 protein can be engineered by one or more mutations and/or deletions to inactivate one or both of the nuclease domains. Inactivation of one nuclease domain generates a Cas9 protein that cleaves one strand of a double-stranded sequence (i.e., a Cas9 nickase). The RuvC domain can be inactivated by mutations such as D10A, D8A, E762A, and/or D986A, and the HNH domain can be inactivated by mutations such as H840A, H559A, N854A, N856A, and/or N863A (with reference to the numbering system of Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9, SpyCas9). Inactivation of both nuclease domains generates a Cas9 protein having no cleavage activity (i.e., a catalytically inactive or dead Cas9).

The Cas9 protein can also be engineered by one or more amino acid substitutions, deletions, and/or insertions to have improved targeting specificity, improved fidelity, altered PAM specificity, decreased off-target effects, and/or increased stability. Non-limiting examples of one or more mutations that improve targeting specificity, improve fidelity, and/or decrease off-target effects include N497A, R661A, Q695A, K810A, K848A, K855A, Q926A, K1003A, R1060A, and/or D1135E (with reference to the numbering system of SpyCas9).

In some embodiments, the nuclease domain can be derived from a type II-S restriction endonuclease. Type II-S endonucleases cleave DNA at sites that are typically several base pairs away from the recognition/binding site and, as such, have separable binding and cleavage domains.

Non-limiting examples of suitable type II-S endonucleases include BfiI, BpmI, BsaI, BsgI, BsmBI, BsmI, BspMI, FokI, MbolI, and SapI. In some embodiments, the nuclease domain can be a FokI nuclease domain or a derivative thereof. The type II-S nuclease domain can be modified to facilitate dimerization of two different nuclease domains. For example, the cleavage domain of FokI can be modified by mutating certain amino acid residues. By way of non-limiting example, amino acid residues at positions 446, 447, 479, 483, 484, 486, 487, 490, 491, 496, 498, 499, 500, 531, 534, 537, and 538 of FokI nuclease domains are targets for modification.

Additional examples of suitable linkers are well known in the art and programs to design linkers are readily available (Crasto et al., Protein Eng., 2000, 13(5):309-312).

In some embodiments, the engineered Cas9 proteins can be produced recombinantly in cell-free systems, bacterial cells, or eukaryotic cells and purified using standard purification means.

(b) Engineered Guide RNAs

The engineered guide RNAs is designed to complex with a specific engineered Cas9 protein. A guide RNA comprises (i) a CRISPR RNA (crRNA) that contains a guide sequence at the 5′ end that hybridizes with a target sequence and (ii) a transacting crRNA (tracrRNA) sequence that recruits the Cas9 protein. The crRNA guide sequence of each guide RNA is different (i.e., is sequence specific). The tracrRNA sequence is generally the same in guide RNAs designed to complex with a Cas9 protein from a particular bacterial species.

The crRNA guide sequence is designed to hybridize with a target sequence (i.e., protospacer) in a double-stranded sequence. In general, the complementarity between the crRNA and the target sequence is at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or at least 99%. In specific embodiments, the complementarity is complete (i.e., 100%). In various embodiments, the length of the crRNA guide sequence can range from about 15 nucleotides to about 25 nucleotides. For example, the crRNA guide sequence can be about 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 nucleotides in length. In specific embodiments, the crRNA is about 19, 20, or 21 nucleotides in length. In one embodiment, the crRNA guide sequence has a length of 20 nucleotides.

The guide RNA comprises repeat sequence that forms at least one stem loop structure, which interacts with the Cas9 protein, and 3′ sequence that remains single-stranded. The length of each loop and stem can vary. For example, the loop can range from about 3 to about 10 nucleotides in length, and the stem can range from about 6 to about 20 base pairs in length. The stem can comprise one or more bulges of 1 to about 10 nucleotides. The length of the single-stranded 3′ region can vary. The tracrRNA sequence in the engineered guide RNA generally is based upon the coding sequence of wild type tracrRNA in the bacterial species of interest. The wild-type sequence can be modified to facilitate secondary structure formation, increased secondary structure stability, facilitate expression in eukaryotic cells, and so forth. For example, one or more nucleotide changes can be introduced into the guide RNA coding sequence (see Example 3, below). The tracrRNA sequence can range in length from about 50 nucleotides to about 300 nucleotides. In various embodiments, the tracrRNA can range in length from about 50 to about 90 nucleotides, from about 90 to about 110 nucleotides, from about 110 to about 130 nucleotides, from about 130 to about 150 nucleotides, from about 150 to about 170 nucleotides, from about 170 to about 200 nucleotides, from about 200 to about 250 nucleotides, or from about 250 to about 300 nucleotides.

In general, the engineered guide RNA is a single molecule (i.e., a single guide RNA or sgRNA), wherein the crRNA sequence is linked to the tracrRNA sequence. In some embodiments, however, the engineered guide RNA can be two separate molecules. A first molecule comprising the crRNA that contains 3′ sequence (comprising from about 6 to about 20 nucleotides) that is capable of base pairing with the 5′ end of a second molecule, wherein the second molecule comprises the tracrRNA that contains 5′ sequence (comprising from about 6 to about 20 nucleotides) that is capable of base pairing with the 3′ end of the first molecule.

In some embodiments, the tracrRNA sequence of the engineered guide RNA can be modified to comprise one or more aptamer sequences (Konermann et al., Nature, 2015, 517(7536):583-588; Zalatan et al., Cell, 2015, 160(1-2):339-50). Suitable aptamer sequences include those that bind adaptor proteins chosen from MCP, PCP, Com, SLBP, FXR1, AP205, BZ13, f1, f2, fd, fr, ID2, JP34/GA, JP501, JP34, JP500, KU1, M11, M12, MX1, NL95, PP7, φCb5, φCb8r, φCb12r, φCb23r, Qβ, R17, SP-β, TW18, TW19, VK, fragments thereof, or derivatives thereof. Those of skill in the art appreciate that the length of the aptamer sequence can vary.

In other embodiments, the guide RNA can further comprise at least one detectable label. The detectable label can be a fluorophore (e.g., FAM, TMR, Cy3, Cy5, Texas Red, Oregon Green, Alexa Fluors, Halo tags, or suitable fluorescent dye), a detection tag (e.g., biotin, digoxigenin, and the like), quantum dots, or gold particles.

The guide RNA can comprise standard ribonucleotides and/or modified ribonucleotides. In some embodiment, the guide RNA can comprise standard or modified deoxyribonucleotides. In embodiments in which the guide RNA is enzymatically synthesized (i.e., in vivo or in vitro), the guide RNA generally comprises standard ribonucleotides. In embodiments in which the guide RNA is chemically synthesized, the guide RNA can comprise standard or modified ribonucleotides and/or deoxyribonucleotides. Modified ribonucleotides and/or deoxyribonucleotides include base modifications (e.g., pseudouridine, 2-thiouridine, N6-methyladenosine, and the like) and/or sugar modifications (e.g., 2′-O-methy, 2′-fluoro, 2′-amino, locked nucleic acid (LNA), and so forth). The backbone of the guide RNA can also be modified to comprise phosphorothioate linkages, boranophosphate linkages, or peptide nucleic acids.

In specific embodiments, the engineered guide RNA has at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or at least about 99% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, or 45. In some embodiments, the engineered Cas9 guide RNA has the sequence of SEQ ID NO:31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, or 45.

(II) Nucleic Acids

A further aspect of the present disclosure provides nucleic acids encoding the engineered Cas9 systems described above in section (I). The systems can be encoded by single nucleic acids or multiple nucleic acids. The nucleic acids can be DNA or RNA, linear or circular, single-stranded or double-stranded. The RNA or DNA can be codon optimized for efficient translation into protein in the eukaryotic cell of interest. Codon optimization programs are available as freeware or from commercial sources.

In some embodiments, nucleic acid encodes a protein having at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or at least about 99% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, or 30. In certain embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the engineered Cas9 protein can have at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or at least about 99% sequence identity to the DNA sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, or 29. In certain embodiments, the DNA encoding the engineered Cas9 protein has the DNA sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, or 29. In additional embodiments, the nucleic acid encodes a protein having at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or at least about 99% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, or 124.

In some embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the engineered Cas9 protein can be RNA. The RNA can be enzymatically synthesized in vitro. For this, DNA encoding the engineered Cas9 protein can be operably linked to a promoter sequence that is recognized by a phage RNA polymerase for in vitro RNA synthesis. For example, the promoter sequence can be a T7, T3, or SP6 promoter sequence or a variation of a T7, T3, or SP6 promoter sequence. The DNA encoding the engineered protein can be part of a vector, as detailed below. In such embodiments, the in vitro-transcribed RNA can be purified, capped, and/or polyadenylated. In other embodiments, the RNA encoding the engineered Cas9 protein can be part of a self-replicating RNA (Yoshioka et al., Cell Stem Cell, 2013, 13:246-254). The self-replicating RNA can be derived from a noninfectious, self-replicating Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus RNA replicon, which is a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA that is capable of self-replicating for a limited number of cell divisions, and which can be modified to code proteins of interest (Yoshioka et al., Cell Stem Cell, 2013, 13:246-254).

In other embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the engineered Cas9 protein can be DNA. The DNA coding sequence can be operably linked to at least one promoter control sequence for expression in the cell of interest. In certain embodiments, the DNA coding sequence can be operably linked to a promoter sequence for expression of the engineered Cas9 protein in bacterial (e.g., E. coli) cells or eukaryotic (e.g., yeast, insect, or mammalian) cells. Suitable bacterial promoters include, without limit, T7 promoters, lac operon promoters, trp promoters, tac promoters (which are hybrids of trp and lac promoters), variations of any of the foregoing, and combinations of any of the foregoing. Non-limiting examples of suitable eukaryotic promoters include constitutive, regulated, or cell- or tissue-specific promoters. Suitable eukaryotic constitutive promoter control sequences include, but are not limited to, cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter (CMV), simian virus (SV40) promoter, adenovirus major late promoter, Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter, mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter, phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) promoter, elongation factor (ED1)-alpha promoter, ubiquitin promoters, actin promoters, tubulin promoters, immunoglobulin promoters, fragments thereof, or combinations of any of the foregoing. Examples of suitable eukaryotic regulated promoter control sequences include without limit those regulated by heat shock, metals, steroids, antibiotics, or alcohol. Non-limiting examples of tissue-specific promoters include B29 promoter, CD14 promoter, CD43 promoter, CD45 promoter, CD68 promoter, desmin promoter, elastase-1 promoter, endoglin promoter, fibronectin promoter, Flt-1 promoter, GFAP promoter, GPIIb promoter, ICAM-2 promoter, INF-β promoter, Mb promoter, NphsI promoter, OG-2 promoter, SP-B promoter, SYN1 promoter, and WASP promoter. The promoter sequence can be wild type or it can be modified for more efficient or efficacious expression. In some embodiments, the DNA coding sequence also can be linked to a polyadenylation signal (e.g., SV40 polyA signal, bovine growth hormone (BGH) polyA signal, etc.) and/or at least one transcriptional termination sequence. In some situations, the engineered Cas9 protein can be purified from the bacterial or eukaryotic cells.

In still other embodiments, the engineered guide RNA can be encoded by DNA. In some instances, the DNA encoding the engineered guide RNA can be operably linked to a promoter sequence that is recognized by a phage RNA polymerase for in vitro RNA synthesis. For example, the promoter sequence can be a T7, T3, or SP6 promoter sequence or a variation of a T7, T3, or SP6 promoter sequence. In other instances, the DNA encoding the engineered guide RNA can be operably linked to a promoter sequence that is recognized by RNA polymerase III (Pol III) for expression in eukaryotic cells of interest. Examples of suitable Pol III promoters include, but are not limited to, mammalian U6, U3, H1, and 7SL RNA promoters.

In various embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the engineered Cas9 protein can be present in a vector. In some embodiments, the vector can further comprise nucleic acid encoding the engineered guide RNA. Suitable vectors include plasmid vectors, viral vectors, and self-replicating RNA (Yoshioka et al., Cell Stem Cell, 2013, 13:246-254). In some embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the complex or fusion protein can be present in a plasmid vector. Non-limiting examples of suitable plasmid vectors include pUC, pBR322, pET, pBluescript, and variants thereof. In other embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding the complex or fusion protein can be part of a viral vector (e.g., lentiviral vectors, adeno-associated viral vectors, adenoviral vectors, and so forth). The plasmid or viral vector can comprise additional expression control sequences (e.g., enhancer sequences, Kozak sequences, polyadenylation sequences, transcriptional termination sequences, etc.), selectable marker sequences (e.g., antibiotic resistance genes), origins of replication, and the like. Additional information about vectors and use thereof can be found in “Current Protocols in Molecular Biology” Ausubel et al., John Wiley & Sons, New York, 2003 or “Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual” Sambrook & Russell, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 3^(rd) edition, 2001.

(III) Eukaryotic Cells

Another aspect of the present disclosure comprises eukaryotic cells comprising at least one engineered Cas9 system as detailed above in section (I) and/or at least one nucleic acid encoding and engineered Cas9 protein and/or engineered guide RNA as detailed above in section (II).

The eukaryotic cell can be a human cell, a non-human mammalian cell, a non-mammalian vertebrate cell, an invertebrate cell, a plant cell, or a single cell eukaryotic organism. Examples of suitable eukaryotic cells are detailed below in section (IV)(c). The eukaryotic cell can be in vitro, ex vivo, or in vivo.

(IV) Methods for Modifying Chromosomal Sequences

A further aspect of the present disclosure encompasses methods for modifying a chromosomal sequence in eukaryotic cells. In general, the methods comprise introducing into the eukaryotic cell of interest at least one engineered Cas9 system as detailed above in section (I) and/or at least one nucleic acid encoding said engineered Cas9 system as detailed above in section (II).

In embodiments in which the engineered Cas9 protein comprises nuclease or nickase activity, the chromosomal sequence modification can comprise a substitution of at least one nucleotide, a deletion of at least one nucleotide, an insertion of at least one nucleotide. In some iterations, the method comprises introducing into the eukaryotic cell one engineered Cas9 system comprising nuclease activity or two engineered Cas9 systems comprising nickase activity and no donor polynucleotide, such that the engineered Cas9 system or systems introduce a double-stranded break in the target site in the chromosomal sequence and repair of the double-stranded break by cellular DNA repair processes introduces at least one nucleotide change (i.e., indel), thereby inactivating the chromosomal sequence (i.e., gene knock-out). In other iterations, the method comprises introducing into the eukaryotic cell one engineered Cas9 system comprising nuclease activity or two engineered Cas9 systems comprising nickase activity, as well as the donor polynucleotide, such that the engineered Cas9 system or systems introduce a double-stranded break in the target site in the chromosomal sequence and repair of the double-stranded break by cellular DNA repair processes leads to insertion or exchange of sequence in the donor polynucleotide into the target site in the chromosomal sequence (i.e., gene correction or gene knock-in).

In embodiments, in which the engineered Cas9 protein comprises epigenetic modification activity or transcriptional regulation activity, the chromosomal sequence modification can comprise a conversion of at least one nucleotide in or near the target site, a modification of at least one nucleotide in or near the target site, a modification of at least one histone protein in or near the target site, and/or a change in transcription in or near the target site in the chromosomal sequence.

(a) Introduction into the Cell

As mentioned above, the method comprises introducing into the eukaryotic cell at least one engineered Cas9 system and/or nucleic acid encoding said system (and optional donor polynucleotide). The at least one system and/or nucleic acid/donor polynucleotide can be introduced into the cell of interest by a variety of means.

In some embodiments, the cell can be transfected with the appropriate molecules (i.e., protein, DNA, and/or RNA). Suitable transfection methods include nucleofection (or electroporation), calcium phosphate-mediated transfection, cationic polymer transfection (e.g., DEAE-dextran or polyethylenimine), viral transduction, virosome transfection, virion transfection, liposome transfection, cationic liposome transfection, immunoliposome transfection, nonliposomal lipid transfection, dendrimer transfection, heat shock transfection, magnetofection, lipofection, gene gun delivery, impalefection, sonoporation, optical transfection, and proprietary agent-enhanced uptake of nucleic acids. Transfection methods are well known in the art (see, e.g., “Current Protocols in Molecular Biology” Ausubel et al., John Wiley & Sons, New York, 2003 or “Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual” Sambrook & Russell, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 3^(rd) edition, 2001). In other embodiments, the molecules can be introduced into the cell by microinjection. For example, the molecules can be injected into the cytoplasm or nuclei of the cells of interest. The amount of each molecule introduced into the cell can vary, but those skilled in the art are familiar with means for determining the appropriate amount.

The various molecules can be introduced into the cell simultaneously or sequentially. For example, the engineered Cas9 system (or its encoding nucleic acid) and the donor polynucleotide can be introduced at the same time. Alternatively, one can be introduced first and then the other can be introduced later into the cell.

In general, the cell is maintained under conditions appropriate for cell growth and/or maintenance. Suitable cell culture conditions are well known in the art and are described, for example, in Santiago et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 2008, 105:5809-5814; Moehle et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 2007, 104:3055-3060; Urnov et al., Nature, 2005, 435:646-651; and Lombardo et al., Nat. Biotechnol., 2007, 25:1298-1306. Those of skill in the art appreciate that methods for culturing cells are known in the art and can and will vary depending on the cell type. Routine optimization may be used, in all cases, to determine the best techniques for a particular cell type.

(b) Optional Donor Polynucleotide

In embodiments in which the engineered Cas9 protein comprises nuclease or nickase activity, the method can further comprise introducing at least one donor polynucleotide into the cell. The donor polynucleotide can be single-stranded or double-stranded, linear or circular, and/or RNA or DNA. In some embodiments, the donor polynucleotide can be a vector, e.g., a plasmid vector.

The donor polynucleotide comprises at least one donor sequence. In some aspects, the donor sequence of the donor polynucleotide can be a modified version of an endogenous or native chromosomal sequence. For example, the donor sequence can be essentially identical to a portion of the chromosomal sequence at or near the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system, but which comprises at least one nucleotide change. Thus, upon integration or exchange with the native sequence, the sequence at the targeted chromosomal location comprises at least one nucleotide change. For example, the change can be an insertion of one or more nucleotides, a deletion of one or more nucleotides, a substitution of one or more nucleotides, or combinations thereof. As a consequence of the “gene correction” integration of the modified sequence, the cell can produce a modified gene product from the targeted chromosomal sequence.

In other aspects, the donor sequence of the donor polynucleotide can be an exogenous sequence. As used herein, an “exogenous” sequence refers to a sequence that is not native to the cell, or a sequence whose native location is in a different location in the genome of the cell. For example, the exogenous sequence can comprise protein coding sequence, which can be operably linked to an exogenous promoter control sequence such that, upon integration into the genome, the cell is able to express the protein coded by the integrated sequence. Alternatively, the exogenous sequence can be integrated into the chromosomal sequence such that its expression is regulated by an endogenous promoter control sequence. In other iterations, the exogenous sequence can be a transcriptional control sequence, another expression control sequence, an RNA coding sequence, and so forth. As noted above, integration of an exogenous sequence into a chromosomal sequence is termed a “knock in.”

As can be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the length of the donor sequence can and will vary. For example, the donor sequence can vary in length from several nucleotides to hundreds of nucleotides to hundreds of thousands of nucleotides.

Typically, the donor sequence in the donor polynucleotide is flanked by an upstream sequence and a downstream sequence, which have substantial sequence identity to sequences located upstream and downstream, respectively, of the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system. Because of these sequence similarities, the upstream and downstream sequences of the donor polynucleotide permit homologous recombination between the donor polynucleotide and the targeted chromosomal sequence such that the donor sequence can be integrated into (or exchanged with) the chromosomal sequence.

The upstream sequence, as used herein, refers to a nucleic acid sequence that shares substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence upstream of the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system. Similarly, the downstream sequence refers to a nucleic acid sequence that shares substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence downstream of the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system. As used herein, the phrase “substantial sequence identity” refers to sequences having at least about 75% sequence identity. Thus, the upstream and downstream sequences in the donor polynucleotide can have about 75%, 76%, 77%, 78%, 79%, 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% A sequence identity with sequence upstream or downstream to the target sequence. In an exemplary embodiment, the upstream and downstream sequences in the donor polynucleotide can have about 95% or 100% sequence identity with chromosomal sequences upstream or downstream to the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system.

In some embodiments, the upstream sequence shares substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence located immediately upstream of the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system. In other embodiments, the upstream sequence shares substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence that is located within about one hundred (100) nucleotides upstream from the target sequence. Thus, for example, the upstream sequence can share substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence that is located about 1 to about 20, about 21 to about 40, about 41 to about 60, about 61 to about 80, or about 81 to about 100 nucleotides upstream from the target sequence. In some embodiments, the downstream sequence shares substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence located immediately downstream of the sequence targeted by the engineered Cas9 system. In other embodiments, the downstream sequence shares substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence that is located within about one hundred (100) nucleotides downstream from the target sequence. Thus, for example, the downstream sequence can share substantial sequence identity with a chromosomal sequence that is located about 1 to about 20, about 21 to about 40, about 41 to about 60, about 61 to about 80, or about 81 to about 100 nucleotides downstream from the target sequence.

Each upstream or downstream sequence can range in length from about 20 nucleotides to about 5000 nucleotides. In some embodiments, upstream and downstream sequences can comprise about 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900, 2000, 2100, 2200, 2300, 2400, 2500, 2600, 2800, 3000, 3200, 3400, 3600, 3800, 4000, 4200, 4400, 4600, 4800, or 5000 nucleotides. In specific embodiments, upstream and downstream sequences can range in length from about 50 to about 1500 nucleotides.

Accordingly, a gene includes, but is not necessarily limited to, promoter sequences, terminators, translational regulatory sequences such as ribosome binding sites and internal ribosome entry sites, enhancers, silencers, insulators, boundary elements, replication origins, matrix attachment sites, and locus control regions.

The term “heterologous” refers to an entity that is not endogenous or native to the cell of interest. For example, a heterologous protein refers to a protein that is derived from or was originally derived from an exogenous source, such as an exogenously introduced nucleic acid sequence. In some instances, the heterologous protein is not normally produced by the cell of interest.

The term “nickase” refers to an enzyme that cleaves one strand of a double-stranded nucleic acid sequence (i.e., nicks a double-stranded sequence). For example, a nuclease with double strand cleavage activity can be modified by mutation and/or deletion to function as a nickase and cleave only one strand of a double-stranded sequence.

The term “nuclease,” as used herein, refers to an enzyme that cleaves both strands of a double-stranded nucleic acid sequence.

The terms “nucleic acid” and “polynucleotide” refer to a deoxyribonucleotide or ribonucleotide polymer, in linear or circular conformation, and in either single- or double-stranded form. For the purposes of the present disclosure, these terms are not to be construed as limiting with respect to the length of a polymer. The terms can encompass known analogs of natural nucleotides, as well as nucleotides that are modified in the base, sugar and/or phosphate moieties (e.g., phosphorothioate backbones). In general, an analog of a particular nucleotide has the same base-pairing specificity; i.e., an analog of A will base-pair with T.

The term “nucleotide” refers to deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides. The nucleotides may be standard nucleotides (i.e., adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, thymidine, and uridine), nucleotide isomers, or nucleotide analogs. A nucleotide analog refers to a nucleotide having a modified purine or pyrimidine base or a modified ribose moiety. A nucleotide analog may be a naturally occurring nucleotide (e.g., inosine, pseudouridine, etc.) or a non-naturally occurring nucleotide. Non-limiting examples of modifications on the sugar or base moieties of a nucleotide include the addition (or removal) of acetyl groups, amino groups, carboxyl groups, carboxymethyl groups, hydroxyl groups, methyl groups, phosphoryl groups, and thiol groups, as well as the substitution of the carbon and nitrogen atoms of the bases with other atoms (e.g., 7-deaza purines). Nucleotide analogs also include dideoxy nucleotides, 2′-O-methyl nucleotides, locked nucleic acids (LNA), peptide nucleic acids (PNA), and morpholinos.

The terms “polypeptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues.

The terms “target sequence,” “target chromosomal sequence,” and “target site” are used interchangeably to refer to the specific sequence in chromosomal DNA to which the engineered Cas9 system is targeted, and the site at which the engineered Cas9 system modifies the DNA or protein(s) associated with the DNA.

Techniques for determining nucleic acid and amino acid sequence identity are known in the art. Typically, such techniques include determining the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA for a gene and/or determining the amino acid sequence encoded thereby, and comparing these sequences to a second nucleotide or amino acid sequence. Genomic sequences can also be determined and compared in this fashion. In general, identity refers to an exact nucleotide-to-nucleotide or amino acid-to-amino acid correspondence of two polynucleotides or polypeptide sequences, respectively. Two or more sequences (polynucleotide or amino acid) can be compared by determining their percent identity. The percent identity of two sequences, whether nucleic acid or amino acid sequences, is the number of exact matches between two aligned sequences divided by the length of the shorter sequences and multiplied by 100. An approximate alignment for nucleic acid sequences is provided by the local homology algorithm of Smith and Waterman, Advances in Applied Mathematics 2:482-489 (1981). This algorithm can be applied to amino acid sequences by using the scoring matrix developed by Dayhoff, Atlas of Protein Sequences and Structure, M. O. Dayhoff ed., 5 suppl. 3:353-358, National Biomedical Research Foundation, Washington, D.C., USA, and normalized by Gribskov, Nucl. Acids Res. 14(6):6745-6763 (1986). An exemplary implementation of this algorithm to determine percent identity of a sequence is provided by the Genetics Computer Group (Madison, Wis.) in the “BestFit” utility application. Other suitable programs for calculating the percent identity or similarity between sequences are generally known in the art, for example, another alignment program is BLAST, used with default parameters. For example, BLASTN and BLASTP can be used using the following default parameters: genetic code=standard; filter=none; strand=both; cutoff=60; expect=10; Matrix=BLOSUM62; Descriptions=50 sequences; sort by=HIGH SCORE; Databases=non-redundant, GenBank+EMBL+DDBJ+PDB+GenBank CDS translations+Swiss protein+Spupdate+PIR. Details of these programs can be found on the GenBank website.

As various changes could be made in the above-described cells and methods without departing from the scope of the invention, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description and in the examples given below, shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.

EXAMPLES

The following examples illustrate certain aspects of the disclosure.

Example 1: Determination of PAM Requirements for Target DNA Cleavage by Cas9 Orthologs

Cas9 orthologs from Bacillus smithfi, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Parasutterella excrementihominis, Mycoplasma canis, Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Akkermansia glycaniphila, Akkermansia muciniphila, Oenococcus kitaharae, Bifidobacterium bombi, Acidothermus cellulolyticus, Alicyclobacillus hesperidum, Wolinella succinogenes, Nitratifractor salsuginis, Ralstonia syzygfi, and Corynebacterium diphtheria were codon optimized for expression in human cells and tagged with a SV40 large T antigen nuclear localization (NLS) on the C terminus (SEQ ID NOs:1-30; see Table 6 below). The expression of each ortholog was driven by a human cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early enhancer and promoter. CRISPR RNA (crRNA) and putative trans-activating crRNA (tracrRNA) for each ortholog were joined together to form a single guide RNA (sgRNA) (SEQ ID NOs:31-45; see Table 6 below). The expression of each sgRNA was driven by a human U6 promoter. In vitro transcribed sgRNA was prepared from a T7 promoter tagged PCR template as a supplement for in vitro digestion.

Human K562 cells were transfected with Cas9 encoding plasmid and sgRNA expression plasmid by nucleofection. Each transfection consisted of 2 million cells, 5 μg of Cas9 encoding plasmid DNA, and 3 μg of sgRNA expression plasmid DNA. Cells were harvested approximately 24 hr post transfection, washed with ice cold PBS buffer, and lysed with 150 μL of lysis solution (20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5; 100 mM KCl; 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 5% glycerol, 0.1% Triton X-100, 1×Protease inhibitor) with constant agitation for 30 minutes in a 4° C. cold room. Supernatant was prepared by removing residual cellular debris with centrifugation at 16,000×g for 2 minutes at 4° C. and used as a source of Cas9 RNP for in vitro digestion of a plasmid DNA PAM library. The library contained 4⁸ degenerate PAMs, each immediately preceded by a protospacer with the following configuration: 5′-GTACAAACGGCAGAAGCTGGNNNNNNNN-3′ (SEQ ID NO:46). Each in vitro digestion consisted of 10 μL of cell lysate supernatant, 2 μL of 5× digestion buffer (100 mM HEPES, pH 7.5; 500 mM KCl; 25 mM MgCl₂; 5 mM DTT; 25% glycerol), 800 ng of PAM library DNA, and 20 pmol of in vitro transcribed sgRNA supplement in a 20 μL reaction volume. Reaction was maintained at 37° C. for 30 minutes and then purified with PCR purification kit. Illumina NextSeq sequencing libraries were prepared from digested products and subjected to deep sequencing. Deep sequencing data were analyzed using a Weblogo program to deduce the PAM requirement for each Cas9 ortholog.

Results are summarized in FIG. 1. The results revealed several Cas9 orthologs that use A and/or T containing PAMs for in vitro target DNA cleavage. These Cas9 orthologs could provide a means to target AT rich genomic sites. The results also revealed several Cas9 orthologs that use a PAM suitable for targeting GC rich genomic sites. These Cas9 orthologs could provide alternative targeting schemes to SpyCas9 in GC rich genomic sites to increase targeting resolution and specificity.

Example 2: Genome Modification using Bacillus smithii Cas9 (BsmCas9) and Lactobacillus rhamnosus Cas9 (LrhCas9)

As shown in FIG. 1 and Table A (above), the small BsmCas9 (1095 aa) (SEQ ID NO: 2) and the LrhCas9 (SEQ ID NO: 4) use a 5′-NNNNCAAA-3′ PAM and a 5′-NGAAA-3′ PAM for target DNA binding, respectively. These novel PAM usages provide a means to target AT rich genomic sites. To demonstrate gene editing, human K562 cells (1×10⁶) were nucleofected with 5 μg of Cas9 encoding plasmid DNA and 3 μg of sgRNA expression plasmid DNA. Targeted genomic sites include the human tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTN2) locus, the human empty spiracles homeobox 1 (EMX1) locus, the human programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD1L1) locus, the human AAVS1 safe harbor locus, the human cytochrome p450 oxidoreductase (POR) locus, and the human nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group I member 3(CAR) locus. Genomic DNA was prepared using a DNA extraction solution (QuickExtract™) three days post transfection and targeted genomic regions were each PCR amplified (JumpStart Tag™ ReadyMix™). The PCR primers are listed in Table 1.

Amplification was carried out using the following condition: 1 cycle of 98° C. for 2 minutes for initial denaturation; 34 cycles of 98° C. for 15 seconds, 62° C. for 30 seconds, and 72° C. for 45 seconds; 1 cycle of 72° C. for 5 minutes; and hold at 4° C. PCR products were digested with Cel-1 nuclease and resolved on a 10% acrylamide gel. Targeted mutation rates were measured using ImageJ and expressed as percent insertions and/or deletions (% Indel). Results are summarized in Table 2. These results demonstrate that both Cas9 orthologs were able to edit endogenous genomic sites in human cells using a 5′-NNNNCAAA-3′ PAM (BsmCas9) or a 5′-NGAAA-3′ PAM (LrhCas9).

Example 3: Improvement of Parasutterella excrementihominis Cas9 (PexCas9) by Fusion with Chromatin Modulating Motifs

Parasutterella excrementihominis Cas9 (PexCas9-NLS) (SEQ ID NO:6) was modified by fusion with a human HMGN1 peptide (SEQ ID NO:72) on the N terminus using a TGSG linker (SEQ ID NO:109) and with either a human HMGB1 box A peptide (PexCas9-HN1HB1 fusion; SEQ ID NO:117) or a human histone H1 central globular domain peptide (PexCas9-HN1H1G; SEQ ID NO:118) on the C terminus using a LEGGGS linker (SEQ ID NO:108).

Human K562 cells (1×10⁶) were transfected with plasmid DNA encoding PexCas9-NLS, PexCas9-HN1HB1 fusion, or PexCas9-HN1H1G fusion in molar equivalent amounts (5 and 5.4 μg, respectively) and 3 μg of sgRNA plasmid for targeting a genomic site in the human cytochrome p450 oxidoreductase (POR) locus. Genomic DNA was prepared using DNA extraction solution (QuickExtract™) three days post transfection and the targeted genomic region was PCR amplified using the forward primer 5′-CTCCCCTGCTTCTTGTCGTAT-3′ (SEQ ID NO:55) and the reverse primer 5′-ACAGGTCGTGGACACTCACA -3′ (SEQ ID NO:56). Amplification was carried out with the following condition: 1 cycle of 98° C. for 2 minutes for initial denaturation; 34 cycles of 98° C. for 15 seconds, 62° C. for 30 seconds, and 72° C. for 45 seconds; 1 cycle of 72° C. for 5 minutes; and hold at 4° C. PCR products were digested with Cel-1 nuclease and resolved on a 10% acrylamide gel. Targeted mutation rates were measured using ImageJ and expressed as percent insertions and/or deletions (% Indel). Results are summarized in Table 4. The results demonstrate that Cas9 fusion with at least one chromatin modulating motif enhances its gene editing efficiency on endogenous targets in human cells.

Example 4. Improvement of Mycoplasma canis Cas9 (McaCas9) System by sgRNA Modification

The wild type crRNA coding sequence of McaCas9 contains four consecutive thymidine residues in the repeat region, and three of the four thymidine residues are predicted to pair with three adenosine residues in the putative tracrRNA sequence when the crRNA and tracrRNA are joined together to form a sgRNA. Human RNA polymerase (Pol) III is known to use four or more consecutive thymidine residues on the coding RNA strand as a transcription termination signal. To prevent an early transcriptional termination of McaCas9 sgRNA in human cells, a T to C mutation and a corresponding A to G mutation were introduced into the sgRNA scaffold to form a modified sgRNA scaffold with the following sequence: 5′-GUUCUAGUGUUGUACAAUAUUUGGGUGAAAACCCAAAUAUUGUACAUCCUAGAU CAAGGCGCUUAAUUGCUGCCGUAAUUGCUGAAAGCGUAGCUUUCAGUUUUUUU-3′ (SEQ ID NO:76), where the mutated nucleotides are underlined. This modification is also predicted to increase the sgRNA scaffold thermodynamic stability.

Human K562 cells (1×10⁶) were transfected with 5.5 μg of plasmid DNA encoding a McaCas9 fusion protein, which contains a HMGN1 peptide on the N terminus and a histone H1 globular domain peptide on the C terminus, and 3 μg of sgRNA plasmid DNA encoding the control sgRNA scaffold or the modified sgRNA scaffold. Genomic DNA was prepared using a DNA extraction solution (QuickExtract™) three days post transfection and the targeted genomic region was PCR amplified using the forward primer 5′-CTCCCCTGCTTCTTGTCGTAT-3′ (SEQ ID NO:55) and the reverse primer 5′-ACAGGTCGTGGACACTCACA -3′ (SEQ ID NO:56). Amplification was carried out with the following condition: 1 cycle of 98° C. for 2 minutes for initial denaturation; 34 cycles of 98° C. for 15 seconds, 62° C. for 30 seconds, and 72° C. for 45 seconds; 1 cycle of 72° C. for 5 minutes; and hold at 4° C. PCR products were digested with Cel-1 nuclease and resolved on a 10% acrylamide gel. Targeted mutation rates were measured using ImageJ and expressed as percent insertions and/or deletions (% Indel). Results are summarized in Table 5. The results demonstrate that the activity of a Cas9 ortholog in mammalian cells can be enhanced by modifying its sgRNA scaffold.

Example 5. Improvement of McaCas9, BsmCas9, PexCas9, and LrhCas9 Activity by Fusion with Chromatin Modulating Motifs

Additional Cas9-CMM fusion proteins were prepared by linking McaCas9-NLS, BsmCas9-NLS, and LrhCas9-NLS proteins with HMGN1 (HN1) at the amino terminus and either HMGB1 box A (HB1) or histone H1 central globular motif (H1 G) at the carboxyl terminus to yield McaCas9-HN1HB1 (SEQ ID NO:123), McaCas9-HN1H1G (SEQ ID NO:124), BsmCas9-HN1HB1 (SEQ ID NO:119), Bsm-HN1H1G (SEQ ID NO:120), Lrh-HN1HB1 (SEQ ID NO:121), LrhCas9-HN1H1G (SEQ ID NO:122). The nuclease activity of these fusions and the PexCas9-CMM fusions described above in Example 3 were compared to the activity of the corresponding engineered Cas9 protein essentially as described above in Examples 2 and 3. Table 6 presents the target site (i.e., protospacer+PAM, which is shown in bold with the determinate nucleotides underlined) in specific loci for each Cas9 nuclease.

The percent of indels under each condition are plotted in FIGS. 2A-D. Both the HN1HB1 and HN1H1G combinations significantly enhanced the four Cas9 orthologs on at least one site. Based on the fold change magnitude, the CMM fusion modification provided the largest enhancement on McaCas9, increasing its activity by at least five-fold on the two sites tested (FIG. 2A). CMM fusion provided more than two-fold enhancement on PexCas9 (FIG. 2B). BsmCas9 activity was enhanced by more than three-fold on one site, but there was only 20% increase on the second site and no effect on the third site (FIG. 2C). It should be noted, however, that all three BsmCas9 nucleases were highly efficient (>35% indels). LrhCas9 was highly efficient on the two sites tested (22% and 33% indels) even without the fusion modification (FIG. 2D). However, the HN1H1G combination still provided a significant enhancement on both sites, with 70% and 28% increase in activity. These results demonstrate that the CMM fusion strategy enhances gene editing efficiency.

Example 6. Off-Target Effects of Cas9-CMM Fusions

To assess the off-target activity of the Cas9-CMM fusions, 1 to 5 top ranked potential off-target sites for each target site were analyzed using the Surveyor Nuclease assay. In addition to the Cas9 and Cas9-CMM fusion data described above in Example 5, data from Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpyCas9), SpyCas9-CMM fusions, Streptococcus pasteurianus Cas9 (SpaCas9), Spa-CMM fusions, Campylobacter jejuni Cas9 (CjeCas9), and CjeCas9-SMM fusions were also analyzed. From a total of 64 potential off-target sites assayed, off-target cleavage was detected on 11 sites, contributed by 9 guide sequences out of total 21 guide sequences tested. On the 11 off-target sites, the control Cas9 and the fusion nucleases were concurrent, with the exception of the POR Spy 1-OT1 site, where no off-target cleavage was detected on the control SpyCas9. Overall, there was no significant difference between the fusion nucleases and the control Cas9 (FIG. 3). For example, across all the 11 off-target sites, the HN1H1G fusion combination averaged 8.0±6.0% indels and the control Cas9 averaged 7.5±5.1% indels. Likewise, across the 10 off-target sites relevant to the HN1HB1 fusion combination, there was no significant difference between the fusion combination and the control Cas9 (6.9±5.7% vs. 6.5±5.4% indels). Taken together, these results show that the on-target activity enhancement by the HN1H1B and HN1H1G fusion combinations generally does not result in an increase in off-target activity.
